  - Issue summary: Receiving a DTLS record for a future epoch while a handshake is in progress causes OpenSSL
    to buffer far more memory than the record itself requires. Impact summary: A peer can use a small amount
    of network traffic to make an OpenSSL DTLS endpoint retain a disproportionately large amount of memory,
    which may lead to a Denial of Service. CWE: CWE-405: Asymmetric Resource Consumption (Amplification)
    Description: While a DTLS handshake is in progress, a peer may legitimately have already moved on to the
    next epoch (for example, having sent its ChangeCipherSpec and Finished messages) before the local endpoint
    has processed the same transition, typically because of reordering on the underlying UDP transport.
    OpenSSL buffers such early records so that they can be processed once the local endpoint catches up.
    Buffering a record currently retains the entire read buffer it arrived in, which is sized to hold the
    largest possible DTLS record (around 16 kilobytes), rather than just the bytes that make up the record
    itself. Up to 100 such records may be buffered per connection. As a result, a peer that sends a stream of
    small forged records claiming to belong to the next epoch can cause an OpenSSL DTLS endpoint to retain
    around 1.7 megabytes of memory, despite sending only a small fraction of that amount of data over the
    network. An attacker therefore gains a memory amplification factor of around 1200, and can multiply the
    effect across as many associations as it is able to open, making this a remote memory exhaustion Denial of
    Service risk for DTLS servers. Since the memory retained per connection remains bounded, and any limit an
    application already places on the number of concurrent associations also bounds the total exposure, this
    issue has been assessed as Low severity. FIPS impact: no No FIPS modules are affected by this issue as the
    affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary. OpenSSL 4.0, 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.0, 1.1.1 and
    1.0.2 are vulnerable to this issue. OpenSSL 4.0 users should upgrade to OpenSSL 4.0.2. OpenSSL 3.6 users
    should upgrade to OpenSSL 3.6.4. OpenSSL 3.5 users should upgrade to OpenSSL 3.5.8. OpenSSL 3.4 users
    should upgrade to OpenSSL 3.4.7. OpenSSL 3.0 users should upgrade to OpenSSL 3.0.22. Premium support
    customers only: OpenSSL 1.1.1 users should upgrade to OpenSSL 1.1.1zi OpenSSL 1.0.2 users should upgrade
    to OpenSSL 1.0.2zr This issue was reported on 18 May 2026 by Amazon Web Services. The fix has been
    developed by Matt Caswell. -- cut (non-publishing metadata for internal use) -- Reported by: Amazon Web
